Thanos was silent.

His huge fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, and each tap seemed to step on Loki's heart.

Under the throne are General Corvus Glaive, Proxima Midnight, Ebony Maw, Black Dwarf and Supergiant.

They stood on either side like five silent statues, their cold gazes fixed on Loki, filled with contempt and scrutiny.

Finally, Thanos spoke again.

"very good."

He slowly stood up, and the shadow cast by his huge figure almost completely swallowed Loki.

"I'll give you a chance, Loki."

Thanos raised his hand, and Ebony Maw immediately understood. His skinny fingers lightly stroked the air.

A scepter inlaid with a blue gem appeared out of thin air and slowly floated towards Loki.

"This is the Mind Scepter."

Thanos' voice was filled with unquestionable authority.

"It will give you the power to control people's hearts. My children will also accompany you to ensure that your plan goes smoothly."

Loki's eyes instantly burst into ecstasy, and he took the scepter with trembling hands.

The moment his fingers touched the scepter, a cold and tempting power instantly surged into his mind, and his eyes flashed with a strange blue light.

"Go."

Thanos sat back on the throne, his voice returning to its cold tone.

"Use your wiles to offer me that blue gem, and do not let me down."

"Yes, my master."

Loki bowed his head respectfully, but when he turned around, his signature evil smile was already on his face.

Ebony Maw walked over to him, his bony fingers drawing complex runes in the air, and a huge, twisting portal slowly opened before him.

"The Chitauri army has been waiting for a long time."

As Loki and the Black Order disappeared in the light of the portal, Thanos slowly closed his eyes, and the huge throne disappeared into endless darkness.

地球

Avengers Base

The huge circular conference room was brightly lit.

The superheroes gathered together, the atmosphere was serious, but there was no panic at all.

Tony Stark stood in front of the main console, and the holographic projection was showing the energy fluctuation data from Asgard.

Beside him, Dr. Banner and Beast Hank were discussing something in low voices, occasionally making a few notes on the data pad.

On the other side of the round table, Princess Zora was polishing her sword, while Dr. Spectrum Joseph Ryder closed his eyes and rested.

Adam leaned quietly against the wall. This time, he did not participate in the research discussion.

The X-Men members formed their own group, and Cyclops was talking in a low voice with Storm, planning tactics.

Colossus stood with Wolverine Logan, who was smoking a cigar and impatiently trimming his nails with his adamantium claws.

Black Panther T'Challa, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist Daniel Rand and others were also present, and their expressions were equally calm.

Some time ago, they joined the Avengers.

In the center of the conference room, Thor, the God of Thunder who had just returned from Asgard, was drinking a glass of beer in big gulps.

"so."

Tony finally finished his discussion with Banner, turned around, and scanned everyone present.

"This is the situation. Thor's brother, the pointy-headed Loki, has run away from home again. And this time, he's found a giant purple-skinned guy to back him up."

His tone was relaxed, as if he were discussing a weekend party rather than an impending alien invasion.

Hawkeye leaned back in his chair and teased.

"So, what we have to deal with now is a god, five alien generals, and an endless army of miscellaneous soldiers?"

"Sounds like the final level of a video game," Spider-Man couldn't help but interject, a hint of excitement in his voice.

Thor put down his beer glass and said in a deep voice.

"Everyone, this is not a game. Each of Thanos's five Black Order generals has the power to destroy an entire fleet."

"So what?"

The Princess of Power suddenly spoke, her voice confident.

"We have three Kryptonians here, though they're not present, a Chaos Sorceress, an Amazonian demigod, and…"

She glanced around at the Avengers present. "A group of battle-hardened warriors."

She stood up, and the black armor automatically covered her entire body.

"We've experienced cosmic collisions, fought many enemies, and even witnessed the fall of gods. Thanos and Loki are not worth our fear."

The Princess of Divine Power's words were full of confidence, instantly igniting the fighting spirit of everyone present.

Chapter 278 The war is about to begin!

"well said!"

Wolverine Logan was the first to stand up, his adamantium claws popping out with a clang.

"I can't wait to rip some alien bastards apart!"

"Calm down, Logan."

Cyclops held his shoulders, but there was still a sharp light in his eyes.

Tony Stark smiled and snapped his fingers. The holographic projection in the center of the conference room instantly switched to a three-dimensional map of New York City.

"Since everyone is so confident, let's talk about the specifics of the welcome ceremony."

He pointed to Stark Tower on the map.

"According to Thor's intelligence, Loki's portal will open here, so this will be our main battlefield."

"Cage, Eddie, Zora, T'Challa... Logan, Colossus."

Tony's eyes scanned over the dozen heroes in turn.

"You are responsible for dealing with those giant guys called Leviathans. Try to limit the damage to within five blocks."

"Stetter." He looked at Scott.

"You are responsible for the ground forces and air support. Don't let any of the Chitauri soldiers harass the civilians."

"Dr. Spectrum, Hawkeye, you are responsible for long-range sniping. Prioritize eliminating the enemy's command units."

"As for us."

Tony's gaze finally fell on Adam, Banner, and Thor.

"Let's go meet Loki and his five generals."

"and many more!"

Spider-Man hurriedly raised his hand, "What about me? Mr. Stark!"

Tony glanced at him and smiled, "You're responsible for wandering around the battlefield and taking some cool photos so that our headlines tomorrow will look better."

Everyone burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere completely dissipated in Tony's teasing.

They are the Avengers, Earth's most powerful defenders.

They possess power enough to fight against gods and have experience saving the world several times.

Their team is stronger than ever and their faith is unbreakable.

Loki and Thanos' advance team are really not worth their panic.

Just when everyone had formulated a detailed battle plan and was ready to act separately!

alarm!!!

A shrill alarm suddenly sounded throughout the base!

"gentlemen!"

Friday's voice rang out, "A massive magical portal is forming over downtown New York City!"

A fighting smile instantly appeared on Tony's face.

"Everyone."

He put on his battle helmet and his voice came through the loudspeaker.

"The party has begun."

new York

Manhattan

A huge magic portal rotated steadily above Stark Tower, and the faint blue light illuminated the entire sky as if it were in another world.

Unlike in the past, New Yorkers did not fall into complete panic this time.

After experiencing several crises, the residents of this city seem to have developed a strong heart.

On the streets, countless people held up their mobile phones, filming and broadcasting the spectacular and strange scene in the sky. Their curiosity and excitement even overshadowed their fear.

The Avengers members had already arrived at the battlefield, but they did not immediately join the battle.

Instead, they dispersed tacitly, formed a human wall on the street, and began to evacuate the civilians who were watching the excitement and not minding the trouble.

"Attention, citizens!"

Tony Stark's voice echoed clearly in every street through the external speakers of the Anti-Superman armor.

"This is about to become a high-risk area. For your own safety, please return home immediately and lock your doors and windows! I repeat, this is not a drill, nor is it some new VR experience!"

His tone was as teasing as always, but the warning contained in it could not be ignored.

The Princess of Power and Adam Bernard were suspended in the air, using their respective powers to guide the crowd to evacuate in an orderly manner.

The other members each performed their duties. Storm Ororo rolled up gentle air currents to push the crowd to a safe area, while Cyclops and Colossus were responsible for dealing with traffic accidents caused by the chaos.

On a relatively quiet street, Eddie Brock has completely merged with Venom.

The black symbiote, more than two meters tall, was leaning against the wall bored, chatting with Spider-Man who was also evacuating the crowd.

"Hey, little Peter."

Venom's iconic mouth full of sharp teeth opened into an exaggerated arc.

"See that big circle in the sky? It reminds me of another universe."

Peter Parker responded somewhat awkwardly as he used his spider web to carry a little girl who was nearly stepped on to safety.

"Uh, really?"

"Of course!"

Venom's tongue extended and flicked in the air.

"In that universe, I also possessed a guy named Peter Parker. We were a great team! We could fly, we could do anything! What a pity!"

It suddenly came close to Spider-Man, lowered its voice, and its tone was full of gloating.

"That guy later thought I was too noisy and tried to drive me away with the church bells! But I ripped them off alive! Don't you think he has no taste?"

Venom kept attacking Spider-Man with his mouth, and Spider-Man was a little embarrassed by what he said. For a moment he didn't know how to respond.

Dr. Banner, who was not far away, listened to their conversation and couldn't help laughing.

"It seems that no matter which universe you are in, you two are really a pair of enemies."

"of course!"
